Ray was an instant fan of the GTA universe as a kid, ever since he first heard the iconic line “Hmm...nice bike.” He has subsequently spent countless hours in GTA worlds — warring, joyriding alongside Niko Bellic, and hanging with cousin Roman. Of all the GTA titles that have consumed Ray’s gaming life for over a decade, he insists GTA IV reigns supreme. His articles and analysis provide diehard fans a mix of nostalgia for GTA’s golden age alongside hype about what’s new and what’s next. While Ray loves to debate franchise favorites, his passion for all things Grand Theft Auto from the early 3D era to today is unmatched. For entertaining coverage celebrating GTA’s past, present and future from a day one devotee, read Ray’s stories.
